You need to set your default font to something that at least covers all the box drawing characters if you want those tests to align properly. In my case, Emacs chooses a Japanese font for the box characters, which contains double-width glyphs for the single line box drawing characters, and single-width characters for the double line box drawing characters, so the alignment is really messed up. > If you need a screenshot of this as an example, I can send it. But maybe > a "self test" should be enough to see what I mean. > It really depends on which fonts are installed on the tester's machine, and which font they use as the default font. I see some of what you are complaining about, but not others.
